Description:	Part I offers two chapters of overview material on causal inference, weighted toward the forms of causal analysis practiced in sociology. In Chap. 2, “A History of Causal Analysis in the Social Sciences,” Sondra Barringer, Scott Eliason, and Erin Leahey provide an illuminating examination of 12 decades of writing on causal analysis in sociology, beginning with Albion Small’s 1898 guidance published in the American Journal of Sociology. The chapter introduces readers to the main variants of causal modeling that are currently in use in the social sciences, revealing their connections to foundational writings from the nineteenth century and forecasting advances in their likely development.
